It's pretty spectacular when you see one coming in to land (I work around the corner). I saw an extremely adult on a building at Tufts a few months ago, too: they're all about the education and the ballgames, these hawks.Garethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08544047015325046422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-25381077117499272052008-04-04T15:08:00.000-04:002008-04-04T15:08:00.000-04:00Those are some amazing photos.Poor girl!Poor hawks...Those are some amazing photos.<BR/>Poor girl!<BR/>Poor hawks!

I read in one article where they said they usually find a nest in a different area once the season starts and all the people are around. And every year, you always see them flying around. So I'm sure we'll still see them.<BR/><BR/>Search "Fenway hawk" on my blog to see my pics of them through the years. I know I at least have one from '05, and one from the Fenway tour I was on recently. And some others.

You'd be so scared for your eyes.<BR/><BR/>I understand why they had to take the birds out of Fenway, but it's a real loss for the park. (Not to mention a gain for the rodents.) I hope the birds can easily adapt to their nest being in a new location. If you see anything about that, please let me know.L-girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05524593142290489958noreply@blogger.com
